Abstract
This is a philosophical paper in favor of the Many-Worlds Interpretation (MWI) of quantum theory. The concept of the ``measure of existence of a world'' is introduced and some difficulties with the issue of probability in the framework of the MWI are resolved. Brief comparative analyses of the Bohm theory and the Many-Minds Interpretation are given.
